TAILS FROM TINSEL TOWN

WORDS BY Jessa Shields

“I heard the song ‘Hooray for Hollywood’ on the radio, and the line “From TV’s Lassie / To Monroe’s chassis” leapt out at me,” says Robert James Clarke. The famed pet painter’s list of subjects includes the canine friends of Kate Moss, Fergie, and Meatloaf, among others. His most recent collection of works, inspired by the aforementioned lyrics, brings together dogs and some of their owners, painted nude or semi-naked. “I wanted to paint nudes because there is an intimacy between the dog and the female form,” Clarke says. “There is a sense of scale of movement that makes for interesting subject matter.” The series, entitled Hooray for Hollywood (of course!) is on show at McAllister Thomas Fine Art Gallery in Surrey, England during September.

PACK OF DOGS

Have you ever imagined Amy Winehouse or Nick Cave as a Chihuahua, Neil Young as a Vizsla, or PJ Harvey as an Afghan hound? That’s exactly what San Francisco-based artist Michael Gillette has done through his unique illustration project, blending beloved, iconic music legends, both past and present, with their dog counterparts. Pack of Dogs, our first foray into book publishing, is a celebration of pup and pop culture for music and dog lovers alike.
